Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 has made its appearance on Geekbench with some key details before going official in China on August 10. With the Mi Pad 5, Xiaomi will make a return to the tablet segment in three years. The tablet has been subject to multiple speculations and leaks. Moreover, the company recently unveiled its packaging box claiming that it has a “little surprise” for its huge consumer base this time.
Xiaomi will also be unveiling the much-awaited Mi Mix 4 smartphone and a slew of other devices at the Mi Pad 5 launch event. The upcoming premium tablet will be unveiled at what is touted as the company’s second mega launch event in 2021. Back in March, Xiaomi held a launch event to unveil the Mi 11 Ultra. Xiaomi has already given us a glimpse of the tablet’s design in official renders. Since the packaging box is ultra-thin, IndiaToday suggests that it could house a charger.
